In one of the most chaotic and unpredictable matches of his short career, Wakaichiro won on day 12 over his opponent Hokutohomare. This brings the rikishi from Texas to 3-3 for the Osaka tournament. The final match, which will decide if Wakaichiro is promoted or demoted, will take place on Thursday, Haru day 13. His opponent is 23-year-old Fujitaisei of Fujishima-beya, a Sandanme regular who is also hoping to get his kachi-koshi.
Wow, that spin move is super-weird and the fact that he ended up doing it twice is ultra-super-weird.
Hokutohomare looked like he couldn’t believe it either. Just when he thought he had young ichiro in his sights!
